Re: Better Video Codecs - was Re: [GnomeMeeting-list] ideas..



Given up on the patched ffmpeg

To compile OpenH323 I would have to do ./configure --enable-rfc2190avcodec=[source of avcodec.h]

The important bit is below - it should all say yes, but obviously without a patched ffmpeg I get no.

checking libavcodec-0.4.7//avcodec.h usability... no
checking libavcodec-0.4.7//avcodec.h presence... no
checking for libavcodec-0.4.7//avcodec.h... no
configure: Skipping tests for VIC H.263 and non-standard H.263

Have emailed openh323 as suggested.

For now I've restored the normal ffmpeg (since I use it to make a video from webcam for posting to a video based mailing list)

But perhaps Craig in CC knows where you can find a binary only version
of the file. (ffmpeg patched for H.263).

argh...so where do I ask for help for this error with ffmpeg seeing that it's a patched version which is needed for h263 in GnomeMeeting/OpenH323?

Cheers

I can't see any binary for patched ffmpeg

The only downloads I can find is here - http://www.voxgratia.org/downloads.html



Too bad I deleted mine :(



All sources and no ffmpeg.

I've no idea...I did see those and think of them...but what are sdl headers? Where do I get them from?

I'm using the prepatched ffmpeg 0.4.7 as provided from the website here - http://www.voxgratia.org/docs/h263_codec.html

I have removed ffmpeg from my system (installed via apt-get) so I don't have ffmpeg on my system since I presume I would be replacing it with the patched ffmpeg?

Thanks

Could it be that sdl headers are missing - or even sdl at all?

Afraid I'm stuck on the very first step....
Using precompiled patched ffmpeg - I'm unable to install it at all.

in ffmpeg 0.4.7 I do a ,/configure and get this:

./configure: line 710: sdl-config: command not found
./configure: line 710: sdl-config: command not found

Creating config.mak and config.h
config.h is unchanged

Then I assume that since it's precompiled I don't need to do a make and
then make install so do a make install:

make -C libavcodec all
make[1]: Entering directory
`/home/jgjones/tmp/GnomeMeeting/ffmpeg-0.4.7/libavcodec'
gcc -O3 -Wall -g -DHAVE_AV_CONFIG_H -I.. -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64

              from common.c:27:

make[1]: *** [common.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory
`/home/jgjones/tmp/GnomeMeeting/ffmpeg-0.4.7/libavcodec'
make: *** [lib] Error 2

make on its own also do the same:

make -C libavcodec all
make[1]: Entering directory
`/home/jgjones/tmp/GnomeMeeting/ffmpeg-0.4.7/libavcodec'
gcc -O3 -Wall -g -DHAVE_AV_CONFIG_H -I.. -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64

make[1]: *** [common.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory
`/home/jgjones/tmp/GnomeMeeting/ffmpeg-0.4.7/libavcodec'
make: *** [lib] Error 2

I can go no further and install OpenH323 without the patched ffmpeg so
what's causing my problems? Thanks.

eek! :)

I'm not too worried about the patent issues myself so I can certainly
attempt to compile it myself.

Teach me the Dark Side, Master!

First start removing
gnomemeeting,gnomemeeting-devel,openh323,openh323-devel,pwlib-devel.

Then, download the sources on www.gnomemeeting.org.
Read this : http://www.voxgratia.org/docs/h263_codec.html
After having applied the patch, recompile openh323.

Once it is done, recontact me for the GnomeMeeting part. I will tell you
what to add and where :)
